Critic Reviews of "The Exception "
VarietyJune 02, 2017Elegant, well-acted and a good deal sexier than the material might suggest.
RogerEbert.comJune 02, 2017Yes, the narrative is occasionally clunky and there is often more tell than show. But a strong ensemble offers compensation.
Associated PressJune 01, 2017This is somewhat well-trod ground... But the sturdy, engrossing The Exception makes a moving portrait of individuals recalibrating their allegiances under the maw of the Third Reich.
New York Magazine/VultureJune 01, 2017The superb English stage director David Leveaux keeps the pacing taut while creating space for his actors to work their magic.
Los Angeles TimesJune 01, 2017A handsomely mounted World War II-era romantic thriller, enlivened by vibrant performances and vivid sexual encounters and inspired by a little-known footnote to history, the story of a ruler who left but never went away.
New York TimesJune 01, 2017"The Exception" is a diverting and occasionally exciting film, though it is rarely disturbing or thought-provoking in ways the material might require.
Common Sense MediaJune 02, 2017This quasi-biographical drama could have been a dry-as-a-bone history lesson, filled with exposition and explanation, but instead it turns into a glossy romance.
Film Journal InternationalJune 01, 2017Intrigue swirls around the exiled Kaiser Wilhelm before a meeting with Nazi leaders in a capable World War II romance with memorable acting.
The Film StageMay 31, 2017The Exception is merely a serviceable drama taking us on a competent if predictable journey.
Slant MagazineMay 27, 2017David Leveaux's film cannily incorporates elements of spycraft and sheer trash into a familiar formula.
Den of GeekMay 01, 2017There's also little question that the movie is frequently saved by offering another joyously entertaining performance by Christopher Plummer.
Vanity FairSeptember 16, 2016Leveaux's film occasionally risks stuffiness, but he cuts that with a few truly sexy sex scenes, and enough tension and intrigue to deliver a satisfying, cathartic payoff.
